cannot move cursor to external monitor

Question

There are 2 dfs

datatypes are the same

df1 =

ID city      name    value
1  LA        John    111
2  NY        Sam     222
3  SF        Foo     333
4  Berlin    Bar     444

df2 =

ID  city      name   value
1   NY        Sam    223
2   LA        John   111
3   SF        Foo    335
4   London    Foo1   999
5   Berlin    Bar    444

I need to compare them and produce a new df, only with values, which are in df2, but not in df1

By some reason results after applying different methods are wrong

So far I've tried

pd.concat([df1, df2],  join='inner', ignore_index=True)

but it returns all values together

pd.merge(df1, df2, how='inner')

it returns df1

then this one

df1[~(df1.iloc[:, 0].isin(list(df2.iloc[:, 0])))

it returns df1

The desired output is

ID city      name    value
1   NY        Sam    223
2   SF        Foo    335
3   London    Foo1   999

Solution 1

Most likely one of these situations is the case (In the example, HP 22" is my main screen)

The screen is misaligned or in another position than you assume

Open System settings > Screens:

1. the screen is misaligned

2. the screen is positioned differently from what you assume: on the left side..

... or on top:

Simply drag the window in another position if one of these situations is the case.

Sticky edges

Another thing that makes it easier to move from one screen to another is switching the "Sticky edges" ("plakranden" in the screen shot below) option to off:

Solution 2

Another possibility (which is rare) is there are some space between monitors. This means, even though left and right monitor are aligned with each other, there are some tiny space between these two. In my case, it is about 2.5mm visible space on my 24"in wide screen. So it feels like hard to move between boundaries. What actually happens is that cursor is moving in those ghost space area you can't see and therefore cause the delay.

The fix is to make sure monitor are really side by side on your 'display' setting.

Solution 3

Looks in System Settings - > Displays how configuration of your system looks like. If all is okay and it looks like you predicted then try to move your mouse fast, sometimes my screen may not work for some reasons even if I know that I'm on the level of the screen I need. If all of it isn't work problem may be with the cabal change your hdmi/dvi or other.

There are several possibilities: what is your screen configuration (how are they arranged in System settings > Screens)? Could you post an image of the "Screens" window? If they are arranged misaligned you could be moving into a "wall", they could be aligned different from what you think. Also try switching off sticky edges (or whatever it is called in English; "Plakranden" in Dutch). Please let me know.

You can drag and drop the screens in System Settings->Displays. Sometimes you can't move to your right monitor just because internally it's on the left side of your primary display.

An edit and an upvote! ("Sticky edges" is idd de correcte benaming in het EN)

Sticky edges was my problem.

Moving the screen worked like a charm. Thanks!
